Operating Instructions 133 4.7 Setting the Motion Detection The Motion Detection page allows you to adjust the sensitivity of Motion Detection. Threshold: If the threshold is set low, this function detects nearly all movements. Sensitivity: If you set sensitivity high, the amplitude of the motion detection bar gets jumpy. 1.Click [Motion Detection] on the Setup page. 2.Click the Motion Detection bar in Threshold to set the threshold level. 3.Click the Motion Detection bar in Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level. 4.Click [Save] to save the settings. Clicking [Cancel] cancels your settings without saving changes. 5.Click [Go to Motion Detection page]. The Motion Detection page is displayed. Note The Motion Detection is disabled while zooming, panning and tilting.Setting Description Threshold Adjusts the threshold for Motion Detection. As the value is set lower, the sensor will detect motions of smaller changes. Sensitivity Adjusts the sensitivity for Motion Detection. As the value is set higher, the amplitude of the Motion Detection bar will become greater.
Operating Instructions 134 Preview Display the current threshold and detection level. The threshold is the line between the green and red bar. The detection level is the line between the dark red and light red color. The Threshold and Sensitivity settings are enabled after saving, and reflected in preview. The Click to Center feature is available (see page 21). Note No responsibility will be taken by our company with respect to consequences resulting from the use of the Motion Detection feature. The Motion Detection feature is not suitable and not recommended for uses that require a high reliability constantly such as surveillance, etc. Threshold
Operating Instructions 135 What is “threshold”? The threshold is the minimum value for the camera to detect motions on the image during the motion detection buffering. Setting the threshold lower allows subtler changes to be detected. Setting the threshold higher allows only bigger changes that might occupy half the image to be detected. What is “sensitivity”? The sensitivity is the level of brightness detected as motion by the camera. A high sensitivity setting enables the camera to detect slight brightness changes. Lower the sensitivity to make the camera detect only big brightness changes. Note Lowering the threshold and increasing sensitivity enables the camera to detect slight movements easily. Note Motion Detection is activated by changes in the outline of objects and brightness changes. This feature is designed to decrease false detections due to overall brightness changes caused by sunlight. But in some cases, the camera may falsely detect rapid brightness changes by artificial light such as fluorescent light. In other cases, the motion detection function on the Network Camera Recorder may detect objects and brightness changes. The way to detect motion differs between the camera and the Network Camera Recorder (customer-provided). The Threshold is displayed.Only motion above the Threshold is detected.
Operating Instructions 136 Additionally, if the objects color is similar to the color of the background, motion can be hard to detect. The detection level depends on the object, resolution, or image quality. Confirm the condition on the Preview window following the procedure above.
Operating Instructions 137 4.8 Setting Alarm Log Notification An alarm log sent once a day at a specified time can be checked. To enable Alarm Log, set Alarm 1, Alarm 2 or Motion Detection for Trigger Setting and check [Enable]. 1.Click [Alarm Log] on the Setup page. When selecting Alarm1, Alarm2 or Motion Detection in Trigger page, the Alarm log window is displayed. 2.Set each parameter. 3.Click [Save]. Clicking [Cancel] cancels your settings without saving changes. 4.Click [Go to Alarm Log page].
Operating Instructions 138 Note When the settings are saved, the number of new alarm logs becomes 0. The camera works only with an SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server. It does not work with mail servers like Hotmail that use a web browser. Setting Description A setup of operation Alarm log operation can be set here. Time Set the day of the week and time to send alarm logs via E- mail. SMTP Server IP Address or Host Name *1 If you set a server IP address, set 4 numbers (0—255) and 3 periods such as 192.168.0.253. Note that 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255 are not available. Or set a host name (1—255 characters). You can set an IPv6 address. Port No. Enter the number (1—65535). Usually set to 25. Reply E-mail Address *2 Set the senders E-mail address. We recommend you to set the administrators E-mail address. Destination E- mail Address *2 1—3 Set the destination E-mail address (up to 3). Subject *2 Enter a subject with ASCII characters (see page 190) or characters from other languages (0—44 characters for a 1-byte character and 0—22 characters for a 2-byte character).
Operating Instructions 139 How to authenticateThe authentication method can be selected: [No authentication], [POP before SMTP authentication] or [SMTP authentication]. POP server authentication may be required by your ISP. In that case, set POP before SMTP authentication. No authentication: No authentication when sending an e- mail. POP before SMTP authentication: Some SMTP servers that send e-mails do not have an authentication feature. Therefore, the camera uses the authentication of a POP server that receives e-mails, before sending e-mails. – POP3 Server IP Address or Host Name *1:If you set a server IP address, set 4 numbers (0—255) and 3 periods, such as 192.168.0.253. Note that 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255 are not available. Or set a host name (0— 255 characters). You can set an IPv6 address. – Port No.: Enter a number (1—65535). Usually set to 110. – Login ID *2:If your ISP requires a login ID to log in to a POP3 server, set it (1— 63 characters). –Password *2:If your ISP requires a password to log in to a POP3 server, set it (0— 63 characters). SMTP authentication: Users are authenticated by user name and password on the SMTP server. Your ISP must support the SMTP authentication. The supported SMTP authentications of the camera are the LOGIN and PLAIN authentications. – Login ID *2:If your ISP requires a login ID to log in to an SMTP server, set it (1—63 characters). –Password *2:If your ISP requires a password to log in to an SMTP server, set it (0—63 characters). *1 Note that [Space], [], [], [&], [] are not available. *2 Note that [] is not available.
